Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between frontend and mobile roles?
A:
frontend: Web browser-focused, HTML/CSS/JavaScript
mobile: Mobile app-focused, iOS/Android native, React Native, etc.
For issues related to both, multi-role frontend,mobile is recommended
Q: How to choose between security and analyzer roles?
A:
security: Prevention of attacks and threats, security design
analyzer: Analysis of causes of existing problems, investigation
For security incident investigations, use multi-role security,analyzer
Q: What's the difference between architect and performance roles?
A:
architect: Long-term design of entire systems, scalability
